n = -3 + 6 add both sides by 6
n = 3

Make a horizontal line on the paper. You may draw arrows on the ends of the line to indicate it is a number line that continues past your data sample.
Put the label "X" to the right of the line to indicate the x axis.
Mark the center of the line with a vertical tick mark and label it 0. This is the origin of the graph.
Make equally spaced tick marks on the rest of the x axis. For this example you should label the tick marks from 1 to 10 on the right side of the 0.
